One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Motorbiked across Vietnam and Cambodia, from chilly mountaintops to dusty backcountry.
Danced naked in the tropic rain at night in Malaysian rainforest.
Visited many festivals throughout Europe, from Sziget to Fusion, Melt and Lowlands.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love food, and enjoy cooking so you might get to taste my skills. I like it hot so be prepared ; ) If you have a good dish you want to share I'd e delighted to taste and get a hold of the recipe.

When I lived in Utrecht I basically accepted every request for a while, which delivered me a whole range of different guests (which was great).
Moved to Amsterdam last year, and when I have time I'd love to host but that would generally only be on weekends. Those tend to get busy but there is always a chance we can fit you in. If hosting isn't possible I might be able to meet up.
Please let me know what you have in mind, and if you have anything specific on your schedule. Are you keen on seeing the sights or are you in for an alternative programme? If you give me an impression of what you're up for it helps me to evaluate if we can arrange something.
